*wipes off tears of laughter* Thank you! I got here by way of girlyswot's journal, and I'm so happy she rec'd this fic. Absolutely fantastic. And I don't think you can cure baby hiccups. I don't remember trying at all, just comforting if the kid in mention was distressed, but Teddy seems to have no problem with it. Actually, I think he finds it amusing. And Luna is a gem. As is clueless Harry and Ron - and their reasons for not calling any of the first four ladies that came to mind. This was really brilliant. Thanks a bunch!

Oh, thank you! The grand total of my experience with actual babies is about thismuch so I was just I GUESS I WILL MAKE IT UP AND PRETEND TEDDY IS A VERY PLACID BABY LA LA LA. I guess it kind of worked?

Thank you so much!

Oh, it worked all right. Some babies are like that. Hope you get one like it if you ever go there. :-) And hiccups might be annoying, but they do no harm. Actually they're good, because they serve to strengthen the diaphragm, so helps the baby breathe easier in the long run. They actually have hiccups while still in the womb... That's probably way more than you felt the need to know, but now you do. *grin*

They actually have hiccups while still in the womb...
Don't I know it! My son would hiccup for *hours* in utero, sometimes all night (of course, he always seemed to get them whenever I was trying to rest).

Isn't that just the way it is? Whenever you try to rest, they start moving around, kicking and hiccuping. And when they're finally out in the open, they continue and always insist on being awake/crying/nursing when you're trying to get a bite to eat yourself. Kids! (she said fondly) They're pretty wonderful.

Bee was a kicker. I called her the Ninja baby before she was born. Her "name" was Jane until about the seventh month until I realized it was too much too peaceful a name for her.
